Just as teaching regular citizenship, the appropriate use also needs to be modeled at home. Parents should be aware that how they use digital forums and set an appropriate example. All users should be aware that what they say or how they use digital platforms will follow them, unlike a verbal comment or physical action (in most cases.)
This however in itself presents a grey area - should there be a time limit or something similar to how these digital statements/actions can be used later on? (For example, the Carson King statements when he was 16.)
Responsible use should be taught and modeled, but mistakes can and will happen as people grow and mature. How these changes can be monitored and how we use things from digital platforms is also a responsibility.
